The snow in the park melted to show rather bedraggled crocus. The first I’ve seen this year. A welcome bit of colour on a drench day.

Snowdrops

The first snowdrops I’ve seen in 2021 a bit later and a bit muddier due to all the rain but so welcome.

The first time I’ve been in Victoria Park for a while. The pair of dabchicks we visited daily through lockdown and the summer are now on their second set of chicks.

We have been watching a pair of dabchicks in Victoria Park pretty much every day during lockdown. Today we saw the first sign a a hatching, a wee foot coming out from under a parent’s wing.
